Re: Watch Engravers, Buttesland Street, Hoxton, London
Typical! - as soon as I had posted this I thought of another way of looking for this man and I believe I've found him: William A Hudson, 'silver chaser.'

Re: GLENNY, George (Grimwade p.295)

Although the notice doesn't indicate this, it's likely the sale was forced by bankruptcy (?) To Watch-Case Makers and others - By Mr. W Davies, on the Premi...

Re: LINSLEY, William (Grimwade p.329, 348, 353)
I'm interested in Linsley because he cased (at least) two watches for Ralph Gout, a watchmaker whom I have studied in detail. Both were located in Bunhill Row circa 1825 when the particular cases were made. Just to update the details for Linsley here, he was apprenticed to Thomas Gibbard - for more ...
